    Summary

    Keith couldn't bear a universe that didn't have Shiro in it. What he got was a universe that had a Shiro that no longer loved him. And maybe if it had been anyone but Keith, that would have mattered.

    Keith, however, had made a promise. "As many times as it takes," he'd said.

    If he could make that promise reach beyond the bounds of death, a little thing like Shiro marrying someone else wasn't going to stand a chance.

    Summary

    Shiro called Matt first, knowing that the other paladins and he didn't exact have the type of relationship where he could discuss his and Curtis's relationship issues. Matt's first response was to send him Keith's holo-frequency and fix him with a blank stare.

    "He doesn't want to talk, Matt. If he cared, he would have said something by now."

    Matt sighed. "Don't do that. Don't warp his character in your head that way. When was the last time Keith ran from something before this?" He paused, let Shiro's silence be his answer. "The Garrison, Shiro. After they told the world we died on Kerberos. He doesn't run when he doesn't care. He runs when he cares too much. Stop pretending you don't know that better than anyone else in the damn universe."

    ~~

    They never talked about what happened between Keith and the clone. They really should have. It left a hole in their relationship, one that only got bigger as Shiro settled into his post-war life with Curtis. Some people are meant to be in your life though. No matter how far he and Keith drifted apart, they always seemed to come back to each other.

    Summary

    The divorce is new. The sense that something is missing from Shiro’s life is not. Despite Pidge’s insistence, he’s not convinced that a space road trip is the cure for this, especially when it forces him to reopen doors from his past he would’ve rather left closed. But even Shiro’s reluctance to reunite with an old friend can’t stop the team from pursuing a new revelation:

    The Lions are still out there. And they might just have company.

    A story about finding the things you’ve lost and holding on to the things you have.

    Summary

    In the years after the war, the former paladins of Voltron have found their own paths to healing - some settling down while others continue to rebuild and explore the universe. For a time, all is well.

    But peace is ever a tentative thing, and those who seek to destroy and conquer will always be waiting in the shadows, biding their time. While Shiro focuses inward and uncovers hard truths about himself and his actions in the face of his trauma, Keith, Pidge, Hunk and Lance slip quietly back into the frontlines of yet another fight to save everything the Coalition has worked to build.

    Now, more than ten years after losing one of their own, a chance encounter brings Shiro, Keith, and the other paladins together, and Shiro must make a choice. Will he fight? Or will he remain on the sidelines as his friends take on the mantle of defender once again?

    As shadows lengthen and tensions rise, the former paladins must come together once more. And the strength of their bond will determine the fate of the universe.


    A post-canon imagining of our favorite characters ten years after the events of season eight.
